Default Anyone else have issues with Bluetooth constantly disconnecting?

I can't tell if it's my phone going bad or my car. It use to work well over the past year until last week. I tried deleting the BT pair and creating a new one but BT will randomly connect and disconnect. I'm running a Galaxy S4 with Verizon.

No connection issue with my iPhone 5S here. Try updating your phone or restoring it to factory settings.

Lexus Enform is poorly executed and a waste of time, IMHO. I plan to discontinue and delete the app.

I was under the impression the Enform is no longer a subscribed service. I know i am not paying anything for it.

I recently notice the discount and connect when sending a text. It was working fine until I did a software update on my Note 3. Something to do with ATT or Android update.

Having the same problem with my nexus 4 and nexus 5. Even with the recent android 4.4.3. It's so bad I have to just turn off Bluetooth on the phones. Problem with both phone and media connection. I'll have to see what the dealer has to say when I bring it in for 5k service.

I had the same problem with my Verizon Galaxy Note 3 immediately after the 4.4 update. I eventually had to get a new phone sent to me by Verizon. All is better now

Is there a way to fix this or who to call for a fix? My Note 3 worked great receiving text through my Nav but now it doesn't. I brought my phones back and they gave me another and it never worked. This frustrates me.

I have the same phone, it was doing that but after an update it works fine now. try using your default messaging app per note3 instead of a third party, I bet that's the issue.

I switched to my Note 3 and everything works fine. Verizon is promising me a fix in about another two weeks or so.

I have a Note 3 since March 2013 and this is my 3rd phone since then. It worked with sending messages through my Nav system but then stopped. Most recent phone I have is 6 days old and it doesn't send text messages to my car and hasn't since getting it.

I spoke with AT&T yesterday and the only fix is to go to an AT&T Device Support Center since there is one near me and tell them to Flash the device back to the previous operating system because the 4.4.2 operating system is not compatible with my 2013 GS350.

I called Samsung and they told me to contact the stereo system in my Lexus b/c the Lexus and the Samsung's profile has been updated and the stereo has not therefore, is not compatible and they need to do an update.

I'm going to the Device Support Store tomorrow and see if the Flash back will work.

I found my default messaging app and it gives me 3 choices which one do I need to have checked? Messaging - Hangouts - AT&T Messages? Right now mine is set on Messaging.

Sorry for so many texts.
